DarksydePhil / TheyCallMeDSP / Phil Burnell - General Discussion

[Sup3r]

The shift to console made sure that games were accessible to even the biggest moron. Stories can't be too complex or nuanced because, well, look at the audience. It's the same crowd that is consistently wooed by Marvel movies.

I think the biggest issue is, like others posted, games try to deliver a cinematic experience and it's fundamentally at odds with the medium.

In my opinion the perfect delivery of a story in a game came from the 1st Half Life. Very little dialogue, lore delivered through in game experiences and an emphasis on showing, not telling.

The issue wasn't a shift to consoles, given what games were like on NES and SNES, but rather a push for "accessibility" in the industry by moral busybodies that don't care to play games. Also there is the insecurities that comes around every time someone even hints that they don't think that games are art.

The games industry in general is like that insecure nerd that imitates the current trend, hoping that it becomes popular. Sounds like Phil whenever he tries to get on his soapbox

It’s one of the most fascinating things he does to me. What drives that behavior? Huge ego? Lack of imagination? Laziness?

When I die I will approach God and demand answers.

And God will say: “Beats me, Pigroach ain’t one of my creatures. Try to ask the other guy. Big ups for the trolling btw! Doing my work!”

I'm really curious as to why he won't play any co-op games with Kat even if she doesn't want to be on camera or whatever, playing with her doesn't mean she has to sit in the room with him, she could just stay in her ahffice/actual bedroom. She wouldn't even need to turn her mic on, just knowing that she's in the game with him would be enough to shake things up a little bit (yes, that's how low the bar is for entertainment on DSPGaming)

Let’s be frank: Doing co-op gameplay with Khat without facecam or sound would just be fucking WEIRD.

And would make the chat (and us!) go wild with rumors and speculation. Everything from “Khat divorced him, it’s one of his mahds pretending to be him!” To “OMG! Khat weighs 400lbs now, she can barely leave her room and doesnt want anyone to see her Snorlax evolution!”

Khat just seems to loathe his streams and everything to do with them, because chat made fun of her makeup once. (Even though she TOTALLY doesn’t care!)

The way Khat was obsessively looking at the chat the few times they were on stream just seems to indicate that she’s way too thin skinned and obsessed with what others might say.

Kinda like Phil, just without the ridiculous ego to act like a bulletproof detractor vest.


TLDR: At this point Khat seems to think of Phil’s job as someone married to a sewer worker.

The money is good, but she’s embarrassed by what he does for a living and smells the shit when he’s ahff.

(Btw: Not good for their long term chances of staying together.)

Phil said it took him 3-4 weeks to beat this game. He's wondering why his viewers don't tune in to watch him play it incredibly slow with the total of 21 hours over the span of almost a month.

An average joe gamer completed this over the span of a week at leisure time. This goes right back to his Life is Strange 2 playthrough where he bitched that reviewers "rushed" through it in 6-8 hours and didn't do all the homosexual shit fantasizing about the hunky character.

He just hates that he time wasting/begging is exposed.

Wait, so Kat was at home and upset by something and rather than talking to her, Phil ran back upstairs to text her instead? Then had the audacity to claim that helping his wife was more important to him than his stream? Not to mention his laughing about it and saying "there's nothing I can do anyway".

The epitome of "family man" right there.

I call bullshit on the whole thing. He is a liar ya know.

People would still make fun of her, and a blow against her is a blow against their real adult relationship.

Phil’s only protecting himself.

He tried this with Animal Crossing to much failure.

You know, Phil is easily one of the ugliest motherfuckers ever spawned, normally his face makes my phone's browser force-close itself but there's just something about this picture of his Envy scowl that makes me giggle. I think someone once used that pic of him for an enemy boss in some Doom clone because it's so impishly feral-looking.

Fuck all that gay fanart his braindead fans make, fuck that faggot-ass cowboy hat he used in his twitch icon, he just needs to use this for everything. I dunno it's like, if this came out on a t-shirt, I would wear it around the grocery store hyper-ironically. Just his face, no text. He just resembles a South Park character, like that homosexual Saddam Hussein with the flapping head and mouth full of lies. "C'mon dood, knock it off, I need that money! I'm living day to day on your support!"

Oop, found the Doom video...but I was thinking of a different game where he's a floating head in a dark forest shouting curses at you.

(Aaand found the dark forest video. Still not it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KCent_2q7ZE)

Narrative games have existed for a long time. One of the first CD ROM games was an example.

It kinda died down after the novelty went away when folks started realizing that maybe “choose your own ending” would never have the same narrative power of a story told by one person.

Then the genre got a revive within the last couple of years when pretentious shitheads (gaming journalists) got tired of getting laughed at by their peers and got massive boners for “Hurr-durr games can be every bit an art form just like books.”

Combine that with narcissists eager to push a political agenda, and an entire generation growing up without reading or watching TV, and suddenly you get an audience that wants stories but don’t have the tools to access them.

(Try giving a 400 page long Dostoyevsky or Tolstoy novel to someone who spent their formative years reading 250 character tweets, and get ready to weep.)

Phil is the living proof of that ol’ Dr Seuss cartoon: An ugly soul makes you look ugly.

I mean don’t get me wrong, the guy was cursed with some shit tier Polish genes. (Just look atvrandom pictures of Polish dudes if you want to know what I mean)

Specifically the missing jaw he tries to camouflage with a goatee.

But there are some pics of DSP in his late teenage/early 20ies where he doesn’t look like a complete potato.

Phil would look a lot better, even without losing weight if he smiled some more.

Instead we get the angry scowl, the greedy scowl, the LIMB scowl, the “shuddafahk ahp dood!” Scowl.

Not trying to sound like your fucking mom, but DSP looks ugly because he’s ugly inside.

 

[FamicomGorby]

Could Deathloop finally be a game that Phil gets his ass kicked in? I know nothing about it.

The only games that can fuck with Dave are ones that are completely based on reaction times and skill. Otherwise his chat tells him how to solve puzzles, what the meta abilities/builds are, and where to find everything.

I was gone for quite some time dealing with my grandpa and then I went on a wonderful vacation with my wife to see that Phil has become even more of a hermit. I knew I needed to take an extended break from Phil because I started to get suggested ads about learning Arabic and becoming a Muslim on YouTube.
My phone knew I was absorbing too much Islamic content on the farms and watching too many detractor videos. I did learn how to say school in Arabic though.

I too have suffered long term damage from DSP.

Or well, my phone has. I start to type K and “Khantent” springs up as a word suggestion. D-O? “DOOD” pops up.

LOL. "YOU GOTTA ADAPT WITH THEE CHANGES."

HE'S TELLING THE VIEWERS THEY HAVE TO CHANGE.

"I'm not trying to guilt-trip anyone"

Holy fuck I'm done. I can't.

Edit: "It's about trying to get me back to where I was."

"I need to convince you guys that it's not about the benefits, but it's about supporting me."
"I'm literally scraping by"
"Oh I can do is be positive..."

"God forbid I try to respect you guys and talk honestly with you."

HOLY FUCK.

"I'm not angry at anyone. I'm just disappointed."

LITERAL GUILT TRIP.

Italian Stallion Phil Burnell reminding his paypigs of their duty to his stream:

I want to see DSP crossover with LowTierGod just so I can see Phil silently cowering while an angry niggo is yelling at him and calling him a low-T faggot.

Excuse you we already know what will happen.

Obviously, the 480p camera has a lot to do with this but look at this pic used for "Sloth"... If this was taken out of context and you didn't know about Dark, how the fuck could your brain even parse this shit?

What the fuck even is this?

Probably because she's the better gamer.

He did some co-op with Leanna. On top of being the better player, she was getting annoyed with his inability to understand basic shit.

Leanna & DSP bicker through Resident Evil 5 Mercs co-op

So with PandaLee actually being decent at RE5 (has the platinum trophy for the base game on PS3, so beat the game on Professional for example) DSP is getting...

[Brother Wind]

Phil is leaving Khet for a video game dude. Whats the opposite of a waifu?

A life.

 

[DSP's Tax Lawyer]

A life.

Ok well Phil doesn't have that

 

[metis]

Phil never had the makings of a varsity athlete.

 

[Wurstbrot]

I like Phil's protective instinct, almost like a father. Just to get it clear, he means these people we totally can't see?



Yes, literally invisible. I wonder who made a retweet of his schedule, it stays a mystery.

- EDIT -
LOL Wrong thread. This needs to go to Main.

- Edit 2 Electric Boogaloo -
Thank you!

Phil never had the makings of an EVO champion.
